Arthur Beatrice - Midlands

Such a beautiful song. 

Mano Negra - La Ventura

I just love Mano Negra’s punk-ska-disco. This is such a silly song, but also incredibly energizing. Makes me want to dance!

Fiona Apple - Paper Bag 

Fiona Apple’s second album is a absolute masterpiece of pop music, I never get tired of the songs, and each one is brilliant. And this video has the added bonus of being directed by one of my favourite directors: Paul Thomas Anderson (they were an item at the time, I believe). He also directed Limp and Fast As You Can, two other completely amazing songs. 

Whatever happened to her? 

A deleted scene from Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy. Which are the other deleted scenes? Still waiting for my own copy of the DVD…

Also, tumblr tags really are awfully unreliable - so many things which never show up (like this video).

Jessica Chastain meets Gary Oldman in Palm Springs and fangirls completely. She’s adorable. ETA: There’s a video of this here.

And apparently, they never met on the set of The Wettest County:

STUDIO: You’re upcoming role is in The Wettest County In The World.  What can you tell us?

JC: I play a gun moll from Chicago in the 1930s.  Well, I’m the only gun moll in the film.  I’m the fish out of water.  Gary Oldman is my ex-boyfriend in the film – I don’t have a scene with him, sadly – but I make a journey to Chicago from Franklin County and take up with these three brothers and they’re shocked by my presence.  She has nice clothes and is a good dancer and very experienced with men but they are not experienced with women.  They’re very experienced with violence.

Harry Lloyd’s scenes in BBC’s recent adaption of Great Expectations.

After watching the episodes, I realised that my favourite thing was Harry Lloyd as Herbert Pocket. He’s so splendidly happy and nice and adorable. And I had no idea he’s a descendant of Charles Dickens himself!
